Kabayani Park

Learning a skill must begin with a meaningful situation. The meaning and significance of a skill to be learned must be concrete and clear to the learners. One of the subject integrated in Makabayan is Sibika/Hekasi. Since, some concepts or skills to be taught to the learners in Makabayan is about history and for the pupils/learners to have a better understanding about historical events/spots in our country it is therefore necessary for the “history” to be displayed for study not only because it is essential to individuals and to society but it also harbors beauty. It is for this reason that having a KABAYANI PARK in the schools is really of great help in the teaching-learning process.

...with the obnoxious public, enforcing the state law, and protecting our remaining natural wildlife are essentially the traditional park ranger’s daily duty. Over the years, citizens of our nation neglect the duties performed by these rangers. These men and women proudly work for the state and are employed by the Department of Environmental Protection, otherwise known as ‘DEP’. Although the “DEP” rangers earn minimal wages while carrying out this difficult job, most claim to work in the park to protect ‘Mother Nature’ and simply experience the freedom of working outside as opposed to an indoor occupation. The average person living in the United States generally believes that park rangers have simple jobs; most people are not aware of the stressful and difficult tasks these men and women have to deal with while on the job. The park rangers are passionate about their jobs even while they are enforcing the states laws/regulations, conserving native wildlife, and responding to emergencies in the park.
In order to find out a little more about how rangers carry out their daily tasks, I decided to interview a DEP ranger, named Patrick Sullivan. Mr. Sullivan is employed at Oleta River State Park, located in North Miami, Florida. I was first introduced to this man while waiting in an old and faded check-in booth located at the entrance of the enormous park. Dressed for work in mud...

...pitch a tent at a State Park and “get back to nature”-- at least that’s how it used to be. Unfortunately times are rapidly changing, and camping, as it was intended, seems to be a thing of the past.
To illustrate my point, I would like to paint a picture of the typical State Park camping experience. Pretend you are a vacationing middle class businessman from down state wanting to take his family on a camping excursion “up north” over his two week summer vacation. In order to spend a night in one of Michigan’s beautiful State Parks, there is a simple procedure that everyone must go through. First, you must dial a toll-free number, 1-800-44-PARKS, (or use the internet to make a reservation at http://www.midnrreservations.com ) up to 6 months in advance to your pre-planned date of arrival. Spontaneity is overrated anyway. After you dial the number you have to type in the first four letters of the park that you wish to visit. At this point you will be connected with an operator in Maryland who will help you pick out a site number that will suit your needs from a park she’s never seen before in a state she has never been in. This is called privatization, which is an issue for a different essay, which I will avoid complaining about in this paper. So, this operator takes your credit card information and charges you $20.00 per night, plus a $2.00 reservation fee. She will then spend 10 minutes...

...Article: The role of urban parks for the sustainable city
Student name: Pham Duc Manh
According to Anna Chiesura, some recent enquiries show that although nowadays people pay more attention to protecting the natural environment, there are less scientists and politicians who care for small green places of cities and for its benefits to citizens. Tyrvainen and Vaananen (1998) claimed that “low appreciation of green spaces is also reflected in the recent cuts in the maintenance of budget of many towns”. Nevertheless, it is generally believed that natural assets and components not only make the quality of life of municipal dwellers better but also provide the citizens with many kind of services such as the purification of air and water, social and psychological services and so on. According to recent studies, urban park brought many positive impacts on the well-being of citizens such as the reduction of the stress, the enhancement of mental health. Moreover, it also brought us other social merits. For example, Coley et al (1997) believed that “nature can encourage the use of outdoor spaces, increases social integration and interaction among neighbours”. Above all, economic advantages can be provided for both municipalities and municipal dwellers by the functions of urban environment. However, there are several negative impacts of parks on people’s attitudes such as the feeling of insecurity related to vandalism and fear of crime in...

The Park
The crisp summer air filled the local park, the sun burning down as everyone wanted some fresh air. A young couple lounging on the fresh grass having a picnic, the juicy aroma of sausages floated through the park. Across from the couple, parked precariously on an old patch of grass, was an ancient ice-cream van. The old, decrepit van had been in the family for years, paint peeling, bodywork rusting, the ice-cream van was fit for the dump. However, everyone in the local park was swarming around the van, tired parents, bored teenagers, everyone needed a refreshment. The driver a sweaty, elderly man, looking worn and fed up, scanned the crowd, hoping for some refuge from the crowd of impatient customer. Beads of sweat dripping from his forehead, handing out melting ice-creams as the suns fierce rays beat down on him.
Close to the van was a young mother, struggling to control her two troublesome toddlers fighting with their younger sibling, sitting in a rather ornate looking stroller. Her oldest child, seemingly unaware, remained clicking away on her phone. Between the baby crying and her mother screaming, the began quickly attracting the attention of those passing by. The young mother was trying to explain to her children that she had no money for ice-cream. Tired and confused she attempted to calm down her noisy children, stopping to pick up her...

The Local Park-Descriptive Writing Mock
Warm and cool, the rays of sunlight glow against the blooming flowers in the green grass which sways and blows in the breeze. Along the slides and climbing frames, the children run about joyfully in their summer clothes. Ding a ling a ling. Bright and colourful the ice cream van parks up on to the road. All of a sudden, everyone is running towards it and there is a long queue going up to the park gates, the worker looks tired and flustered as she tries to serve all her customers quickly.
Somewhere in the park you can hear the distant barks and the odd chirping as birds fly over. The mild fragrance of apples and pears beginning to grow on the big bold oak tree as summer begins. As it droops over a couple having a picnic; happily and peacefully they giggle as they eat sandwiches and drink sparkling water. A petite, cute girl runs up to her daddy, “Daddy, daddy will you come play with me?” she says. Instantly he grabs her in his arms and gives her a big warm cuddly hug, and lifts her into the air spinning her round and round like a Ferris wheel. Once she is put down they run off to the playground.
Nearby, on the climbing frames a young boy swings merrily back and forth like a monkey. The young boy spots his mother and runs to her rapidly as if he hadn’t seen in months. They walk along to the big blue pond which lies underneath the wooden bridge that has algae...

If we didn't have national parks, people would be allowed to build over ALL of the land. If people built buildings all over the land, there would be no more room for nature. No room for trees, no room for animals, just a bunch of buildings all over the place. With no trees... and no animals… we'd all die. We need national parks for survival, nature is an integral part of our lives, and we need to preserve as much of it as possible in order to keep the cycle of life flowing. Aside from its beautiful sight, national parks are protected places where endangered and other animals are allowed to live.
